Can 5G affect male fertility? 📶![]()
![]()
A new study from ENEA - Agenzia nazionale tested this in mice. Male mice were exposed to high-band 5G signals (27.5 GHz) for 100 days, and the researchers then checked their sperm, hormones and testes.![]()
![]()
What they found was interesting: the results depended on the mouse’s genetics 🧬. One strain showed clear changes in sperm quality, especially in how well sperm swam and the shape of their tails. A second strain showed milder changes, and a third was barely affected at all. These effects happened without any heating of the body.![]()
![]()
Why it matters: most safety frameworks for radiofrequency exposure focus on heating. This work points to possible non-thermal biological effects and highlights genetic background as a factor in susceptibility, which is a strong argument for using multiple strains in toxicology testing.![]()
![]()
As always, these are animal data, and the absence of a clear dose-response calls for replication before drawing conclusions about human health. But as FR2 deployment expands, well-designed long-term studies like this one are exactly what the evidence base needs.![]()

This research is part of SeaWave Project, and its results keep adding to what we know about how 5G exposure might affect our health, .![]()

"Real-World Assessment of RF-EMF Exposure From 3G, 4G, and 5G Mobile Networks Across Different Urbanization Levels", ![]()
published in IEEE Access, is the outcome of a collaboration between the ETRI, Télécom Paris and AUTH teams within the framework of the SeaWave Project. ![]()
This work was also supported in part by the IITP grant funded by Korean Government. ![]()

The study deals with real 3G, 4G and 5G networks in cities and the countryside in South Korea.![]()
![]()
What it was found:![]()
✅ In most cases, the exposure of the brain from base stations was similar to, or higher than, the exposure from the phone's own transmissions.![]()
✅ Location matters more than age: exposure differed by up to about 4 times between urban and rural areas, while children and adults differed much less.![]()

Why do some people feel more concerned about 5G radiation than others? 🌐🤔![]()
![]()
A recent 10-country study, published in Bioelectromagnetics and co-authored by the IU International team, set out to answer just that by looking into public perceptions of 5G EMF emissions across nations with different 5G network coverage and possibly also RF‐EMF risk perception![]()

The online panel survey was conducted between September and December 2023 in Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Poland, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, and the United Kingdom. ![]()

Here are a few highlights from the research:![]()
![]()
📊 It’s Not Just About Proximity: Subjective feelings of exposure are often influenced by psychological drivers—like trust in science and government, fear of new tech, and media influence—rather than just living near a cell tower.![]()
🌍 Differences Across Countries: Levels of concern vary considerably depending on where you live, reflecting different cultural contexts, news coverage, and local health messaging.![]()
💬 Better Communication Needed: To address public worries effectively, health authorities and planners need transparent, clear, and empathetic communication rather than just dropping technical charts.![]()
![]()
Listening to public concerns is just as important as measuring signal strengths when introducing new technologies!![]()
